The words
I see have wavy face
Their space
Boundless and unfathomable
As I walk by their shores
Every single sunrise and sunset
Of everyday wear a virgin look
I think of tides, currents, expeditions,
And history of course
The words
Breathe salty air so closed to life
I dive into their depth
Holding my breath
Ah breathtaking truths, beauty
And dark hollows
Come in sight
No one knows if ever any light
Will there reach
The words
Are here from
Time immemorial
Breaking on the shores of heart
Reflecting a world within a world
Spoken, written, sketched, etched, sculpted
and sang
By genius and common man
For me, you and all

In suffocating pressure
Heart and soul burn
Gasp for a dot of air, light
And pray a million years
To be released
From the hellish dungeon
Once out
Days of
Planning, Cleaving, Bruting
Begin; days drag on
Till bathing in acid
Is done meticulously
Only then the pallor is gone
A radiant luster peeps
The whole body glows
The diamond smiles
All suffering ends
Without darkness
There is no birth of light
